Based on what I've read on Wikipedia and Comic Vine, it goes something like this:
NOW Comics version
1930s and 1940s Green Hornet = Britt Reid
1930s and 1940s Kato = Ikano Kato
.
1960s Green Hornet = Britt Reid II (Britt Reid's nephew)
1960s Kato = Hayashi Kato (Ikano Kato's son)
.
1986 Green Hornet = Alan Reid (Britt Reid II's nephew)
1986 Kato = Hayashi Kato
.
1989-1995 Green Hornet = Paul Reid (Britt Reid II's nephew)
1989 Kato = Mishi Kato (Hayashi Kato's half-sister)
1990-1994 Kato = Hayashi Kato
1995 Kato = Kono Kato (Hayashi Kato's nephew)
.
early 21st century Green Hornet = Gordon Reid (Paul Reid's son)
.
late 21st century Green Hornet = Clayton Reid (Gordon Reid's son)
late 21st century Kato = Luke Kato
.
Dynamite Entertainment version
1930s, 1940s and 1960s Green Hornet = Britt Reid
1930s, 1940s and 1960s Kato = Hayashi Kato
.
early 21st century Green Hornet = Britt Reid Jr. (Britt Reid's son)
early 21st century Kato = Mulan Kato (Hayashi Kato's daughter)
.
Did I get that right? Were the Dynamite versions of Britt Reid and Hayashi Kato really active from the 1930s to the 1960s? And how did they have children who were still young in the early 21st century? I'm assuming that the Green Hornet (2010) series is set in the same year it was published in.
The Green Hornet page lists his full name as Britt Elijah Reid. Does anyone know which story that's from?
And can anyone tell me which versions of Green Hornet and Kato appeared in the crossovers The Shadow/Green Hornet: Dark Nights, Batman '66 Meets The Green Hornet, Masks, Masks 2 and The Lone Ranger/Green Hornet?
